Why is your wife mean to you?

A wife should be much more than a woman who is just there. She should be a man's companion, the one thing that leads him to rise out of bed, to go to work, to do everything he does. A wife is to a man as the stars are to the sky, that the man with a wife is the man with everything. She is who bears his children. She is who kisses him gently, who helps him and at times annoys him. There are few things a man should love more than his wife, and if that's not the case then she is not the woman for YOU.

A:About the same number of boys and girls are born, so for each man who has two wives, another man must remain unmarried. It would therefore be impossible for every Muslim to have more than one wife. Even in countries where polygamy is legal, most Muslims choose to have only one wife. _____________________________________________________It is practically exceptional for a Muslim man to marry more than one wife although he is entitled to marry up to four wives at a time.

Second marriage of his will be invalid in Turkey.
